This image was taken by Mike Andree. The image shows several hives in a single apiary in the blueberry barrens of Deblois, Maine. Every year honey bee colonies are deployed to various regions of the country to pollinate crops. Colonies are put on to pallets, loaded onto tractor-trailers and driven across the country. Beekepeers are the last of the nomadic farmers and are not easily replaced. Therefore, it is imperative that commercial beekeepers and their ailing colleagues (honey bees) get the attention they deserve. Honey bee foragers can be seen at the entrance of each hive primed for flight.
